What makes up your laptop?

What should I wear today? is an iPhone app of the future.  With this app, one is given various outfit choices based on what the weather is outside.  With this app, one takes pictures and stores articles of clothing onto their application software.  It sorts the clothing based on what it is, occasion, season, and style.  It is a personal database that is specific to ones' own closet. 

In our fourth week of IST 195, I learned a lot about the internal parts of a computer.   These parts include the hard drive, the optical drive, the processor, cpu, motherboard, memory, etc. We learned about different computers and various components that make them up. We also learned about what makes them significant to the computers' abilities and their costs. For instance, why a computer with 6MB cache and a dual processor will be more expensive than a computer with less cache and a single processor. We also learned about input sources/devices, distinctive types of storage, and the various displays that make up a monitor.   After this week of classes I really feel like I learned about the different components that make up a computer

I also feel like the lab (4) that we did this week was very helpful in further explaining and identifying the hardware and internal sources of a computer. For example, we had to read and identify all the different parts by looking at pictures of a computers and then reading about their uses. I also learned things like, why a heating sink is necessary in certain parts of a computer, or why the cpu might be located next to memory on the motherboard.  This weeks lectures really broadened my outlook on computers, and really broke down the overlying specifics that make it function.
